    Sarah J. Maas
    “Well, good-bye for now," he said, rolling his neck as if we hadn't been talking about anything important at all. He bowed at the waist, those wings vanishing entirely, and had begun to fade into the nearest shadow when he went rigid.
    His eyes locked on mine wide and wild, and his nostrils flared. Shock—pure shock flashed across his features at whatever he saw on my face, and he stumbled back a step. Actually stumbled.
    "What is—" I began.
    He disappeared—simply disappeared, not a shadow in sight—into the crisp air.”

    Sarah J. Maas
    There are those who seek me a lifetime but never we meet,
    And those I kiss but who trample me beneath ungrateful feet.

    At times I seem to favor the clever and the fair,
    But I bless all those who are brave enough to dare.

    By large, my ministrations are soft-handed and sweet,
    But scorned, I become a difficult beast to defeat.

    For though each of my strikes lands a powerful blow,
    When I kill, I do it slow...

    Sarah J. Maas, A Court of Thorns and Roses

    “I like to see people reunited, I like to see people run to each other, I like the kissing and the crying, I like the impatience, the stories that the mouth can't tell fast enough, the ears that aren't big enough, the eyes that can't take in all of the change, I like the hugging, the bringing together, the end of missing someone.”
